Chapter 34: The Beginning of the Polar Day
(Two more this week, I hope to have a good result, new book, ask for collection and push)
About five months later, the intense radiation that had been concentrated in the shipwreck cemetery had dissipated, except for the three submarines, but it was probably impossible to tell that they had carried nuclear bombs and were deadly sources of radiation at the bottom of the deep seabed.
As the radiation dissipated, the creatures grew more populous, and many deep-sea creatures preferred to use shipwrecks as a place to live, and the shipyard lost its eerie, lifeless atmosphere.
And the guy who made all this has left here at this time, and is standing on an iceberg looking up at the sky.
The sky is no longer as dull as it was a few months ago, and although it is dark now, there is still a layer of misty light not far from the horizon, that is, the polar day is beginning, and the scope is expanding, representing the spring and summer when the land will usher in a glorious dawn.
"So I've been at the bottom of the ocean for so long? Are you going to stay up until the beginning of the night? ”
Although the polar day has arrived, there are still snowflakes in the sky, the cold wind is cold, the snow is silent, Cheng Fan asked himself softly in the wind.
He felt that the time in the sea did not pass quickly, but he didn't think that before he knew it, it was time to return from the polar night, and the polar day was approaching.
He looked at the light on the iceberg for a while, then jumped down from the iceberg, looked at the compass that had been re-tied to his wrist, jumped into the sea, and swam in one direction.
Judging from Cheng Fan's route from the globe, at the beginning, he set out from the western Pacific Ocean and headed towards the Arctic Circle, at that time his direction was to the north, and after he crossed a certain geographical location, the direction he was going was already south.
After more than ten days of rushing in the sea, the range of light in the sky not far away is getting bigger and bigger, and the dim sky gradually brings light, and the sun seems to be about to wake up, as if it is not awake and yawns before getting up.
Cheng Fan was no longer swimming in the sea at this time, he landed on a piece of land!
To be precise, he landed on an island, but this island is a bit big, and it is called the largest island on earth!
Greenland is the name of the island where Cheng Fan is currently located! The island is a Danish territory between the Arctic Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean, with four-fifths of the island located within the Arctic Circle, resulting in extremely low temperatures all year round, and snow-capped peaks and snowfields everywhere.
Naturally, it is also affected by the polar night and polar day.
Cheng Fan landed on the world's largest island three days ago, and he didn't know that he had landed on Greenland until he walked south for two days and two nights without seeing the edge of the island, and then he knew that he had arrived in Greenland.
The environment of Greenland is not much different from the Arctic wilderness that Cheng Fan passed through when he came, with the same thousands of miles of wind roaring, thousands of miles of snow drifting, and the same creatures inhabited by polar bears and musk oxen.
If you really want to say something different, it is that the polar night is receding at the moment, and Cheng Fan is leaving the Arctic Circle in the south, and slowly, the more traces of life activities encountered along the way, Cheng Fan even saw the footprints left by the activities of the Arctic wolf in the snow.
Of course, wolves can't arouse Cheng Fan's interest, but if there are really Arctic wolves who don't open their eyes to come to the door, he still doesn't mind the taste of wolf meat, and by the way, compare the difference between Arctic wolves and wolves in the Siberian wilderness in terms of meat, what makes him really interested is another large animal that lives in the same Arctic Circle.
The distribution range of this animal is not small, it is distributed in the Arctic region, but Cheng Fan has never encountered it since entering the Arctic Circle, but on Greenland, he was fortunate to see the traces left by their activities.
Thanks to Santa Claus, these creatures are more well-known than musk oxen, and almost everyone in the world knows their names because they are the reindeer, the legendary animals that pull carts for Santa Claus.
As the long polar night winter passes, spring arrives from the south, and the reindeer begin their annual migration, leaving the forests and grasslands where they inhabit in the winter and heading north along a route that has remained unchanged for centuries.
Cheng Fan to the south, the reindeer to the north, and the two met unexpectedly in this land.
However, not all encounters are beautiful, and sometimes they can be violent and bloody!
Cheng Fan chased the traces left by a group of reindeer all the way, ran for a long time, and finally saw this animal in a snowy field that he had only seen on the screen.
Coincidentally, when Cheng Fan met the reindeer, it happened that the polar day in the sky spread here, intersecting with the night sky after dark.
As a result, there was a mythical scene in the sky, half of the sky was dark, half of the sky was bright, light and darkness were intertwined, but they flowed through the sky clearly. (Note: This is fake, don't believe it, this author has never seen the polar night and the polar day, made up)
On the ground, a pitch-black monster stood in the way of a herd of reindeer, and although the reindeer had never seen this monster, it didn't stop them from understanding that the comer was not good!
The reindeer huddled together in panic, with a number of beefy reindeer guarding some of the smaller ones in the center.
Strangely enough, these sturdy deer did not have horns on the top of their heads, but the smaller deer that were guarded were the first to bear branches.
"Could it be that the doe is protecting the stag? It turns out that reindeer are still matriarchal societies? ”
Cheng Fan guessed in his heart, his jet-black tail wagging behind him, sometimes whipping in the snow, stirring up bursts of snow dust.
His ice-blue gaze was like a torch, and he looked back and forth among the reindeer.
These reindeer are brown and white, with most of their bodies brown and only a few parts of the body tinged with white. Probably due to a harsh winter with a lack of food, the physique is not considered fat.
Cheng Fan picked and picked meat from the vegetable market, and after choosing a healthy-looking reindeer (fatter) among the reindeer herd, he kicked his legs on the ground, galloped up, and killed the reindeer herd.
These reindeer look big, but their courage is much worse than that of musk oxen, seeing Cheng Fan rushing over, this group of guys actually turned around and ran, their hooves flying, and they ran thief!
What about the good unity? What about the resistance that is said to be good?
Where is the courage to fight with Cheng Fan?
For a while, the ice, snow and dust on the snowfield were raised everywhere, splashing down under the light of the polar day, Cheng Fan was interested again, and he didn't speed up, but chased after the reindeer he fancied with an unhurried pace.
The reindeer had been running with the army, but its companions gradually discovered that this strange fellow, who was not easy to mess with at first glance, only chased after it, and did not chase himself and waited for the deer, so he simply scattered and ran away, and sold the same kind very unscrupulously.
Sure enough, seeing that Cheng Fan was only chasing the reindeer, the other reindeer stopped not far away, and there were bold guys who were still watching the play on the side, and there were also some guys who "didn't care about themselves, hung high" and silently forged grass in the snow, as if the reindeer that was being chased and killed was not their companion.
Cheng Fan's physical strength far surpassed that of the reindeer, this reindeer has been running at a high speed, his physical strength is gradually exhausted, and his body cannot supply oxygen, even if it is reluctant, the speed naturally slows down.
Cheng Fan waited for it to slow down, his body suddenly accelerated, ran over, and ran directly in front of the reindeer, and then held the reindeer's head with both paws, and smashed the reindeer to the ground with a fierce over-the-shoulder fall.
